The chemical and structural properties of biomolecules determine their interactions, and
thus their functions, in a wide variety of biochemical processes. Innovative imaging methods …

Regulation of pH in spermatozoa is a complex and dynamic process as sperm cells
encounter different pH gradients during their journey from testes to the site of fertilization in …

Background It is estimated that approximately 8–12% of couples globally face problems
associated with infertility. A large number of men exhibit suboptimal sperm parameters …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation with amino acids
on sperm quality and fertility rates after insemination with boar semen. Twelve Yorkshire …

Sperm maturation in the epididymis is based on interactions with proteins from epididymal
fluid (EF). The aim of the study was to profile canine EF proteome and investigate …

The aims of this study were to determinate whether pentoxifylline (PTX) increases the motion
parameters of fresh and frozen-thawed equine epididymal spermatozoa, to evaluate the …

The objective of the present study was to determine the effect of different amino acid patterns
on the semen quality of boars fed with low-protein diets. Twenty-four boars were randomly …

Background Studies have shown that olfactory receptor genes are the largest in the human
genome, which are significantly expressed in olfactory and non-olfactory tissues such as the …

Sperm motility can be maintained in vitro by incubation in a defined medium under specific
conditions. In most studies, the exact role of various constituents of epididymal fluid …

Mature and potentially motile spermatozoa stored in cauda epididymis in an inactive state
for approximately 30 days; however, during ejaculation they regain motility. To understand …
